Has improved secure user access while managing development through multiple technologies

I have already explained this in my previous call; I don't handle financial terms and commercials. Pricing is generally managed by functional teams and management looking after licensing matters. In Pakistan, vendors such as Oracle and IBM manage account relationships with clients and have tailored pricing models, so I do not have sufficient insights into that aspect.IBM Security Verify Access installation process is not straightforward; it requires underlying specialized knowledge upon which the IBM products are based. The complexity and scalability of the architecture necessitate in-depth technical knowledge and understanding of the system. Thus, installation is not as simple as clicking through; it requires extensive configuration of the underlying application servers, such as IBM WebSphere, where these products are deployed and configured.

Automated cloud insights have transformed compliance monitoring and reduced audit preparation time

Regarding the advantages of JupiterOne, the automated asset discovery, graph-based visualizations, and compliance mapping against SOC 2 and ISO 27001 policy management with pre-built templates are standout features. The J1QL query language for custom security queries, alerting for misconfigurations, and integrations with AWS, GitHub, Okta, and CloudTrail are also valuable. The graph-based querying is underrated. Most people think of it as just an asset inventory tool, but the ability to query relationships between assets and understand what is connected to what in an automated compliance context is truly powerful once the team becomes comfortable with it. The impact is much better visibility into cloud security posture than I had before. My security team has spent less time manually hunting for information and more time actually acting on risk. The query capability helps me reduce back-and-forth between security and engineering. Instead of security asking the team manual questions about the environment, much of the context is now available directly in JupiterOne, allowing me to query it directly and get answers immediately. The monitoring part covers assets and metrics including asset coverage counts, compliance score percentage, policy violation counts, mean time to detect, mean time to respond, alert response rate, and integration count across connected tools. The policy violation count is the best metric I use to measure the impact of JupiterOne's centralized asset management repository on security initiatives.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"It's a good solution for identification and access management."

"IBM Security Verify Access is providing a secure way of handling the user login journey, and secure user authentication is fully managed by ISAM or ISVA."

"It can do a lot of different functions, and different types of teams can use this product for a variety of use cases, such as RSA, OTP, and single sign-on functionalities."

"Its stability and UI are most valuable."

"From the integration point of view, it supports SAML, OIDC, and OAuth; for legacy applications that don't have support for SAML and other new protocols, it provides single sign-on access to end-users, and from the integration compatibility point of view, it is highly capable."

"I have found this solution to be really practical and when a user wants to log in, it is effortless and runs smooth."

"The tool provides a password vault, single sign-on, and multifactor authentication. It offers various authentication methods like fingerprint integration, one-time passwords, or tokens sent via email or SMS. This ensures secure access to your accounts by providing multiple authentication options."

"IBM Security Access Manager is a very good solution, so my company is still using it."

More IBM Security Verify Access pros

"JupiterOne helps us aggregate all those things on one single platform, allowing us to quickly identify what environment that asset lives in and what type of asset it is."

"I have definitely seen a positive return on investment from JupiterOne in a few concrete ways."

"The security team saved 80% of manual tracking time, reducing the weekly effort from 15 to 20 hours down to 3 to 4 hours."

"The product’s UI is pretty decent and fast."

"Using JupiterOne, I have observed an increase in transaction success rates to 99% without improper data, translating to 99% time saved."

Cons

"The solution could be classified as a hilt system. There are a lot of resources being used and it is suitable for very large enterprises or the public sector."

"There are a lot of areas that can be improved, but the main area is the lack of customization. You cannot easily customize anything in the product. It is not easy to tweak the functionality. It is challenging to change the out-of-the-box functionality."

"They can improve the single sign-on configuration for OIDC and OAuth. That is not very mature in this product, and they can improve it in this particular area. OIDC is a third-party integration that we do with the cloud platforms, and OAuth is an authorization mechanism for allowing a user having an account with Google or any other provider to access an application. Organizations these days are looking for just-in-time provisioning use cases, but IBM Security Access Manager is not very mature for such use cases. There are only a few applications that can be integrated, and this is where this product is lagging. However, in terms of configuration and single sign-on mechanisms, it is a great product."

"What we'd like improved in IBM Security Access Manager is its onboarding process as it's complex, particularly when onboarding new applications. We need to be very, very careful during the onboarding. We have no issues with IBM Security Access Manager because the solution works fine, apart from the onboarding process and IBM's involvement in onboarding issues. If we need support related to the onboarding, we've noticed a pattern where support isn't available, or they don't have much experience, or we're not getting a response from them. We're facing the same issue with IBM Guardium. As we're just focusing on the multi-factor authentication feature of IBM Security Access Manager and we didn't explore any other features, we don't have additional features to suggest for the next release of the solution, but we're in discussion about exploring ID management and access management features, but those are just possibilities because right now, we're focused on exploring our domain."

"The user interface needs to be simplified, it's complex and not user-friendly."

"For small or medium-sized businesses they cannot afford this solution."

"Configuration could be simplified for the end-user."

"What we'd like improved in IBM Security Access Manager is its onboarding process as it's complex, particularly when onboarding new applications."

More IBM Security Verify Access cons

"Regarding performance and speed scenarios for JupiterOne, queries sometimes take too long, especially when dealing with large datasets or complex graph relationships that can slow down significantly."

"However, the compliance module has not worked well, and we have had to continue tracking our compliance manually with the tools we use."

"The only improvements I would suggest for JupiterOne are addressing the J1QL learning curve with better tutorials."

"JupiterOne could improve regarding the cost, as enterprise deployment can be costly."

"You can only write Python queries in Jupiter, not other languages, like, SQL or PySpark."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The license and costs depend on the amount range of users you have. For just approximately 2,000 users, the price is practical and fair. However, when you have 20,000 users, it starts to become really expensive, and the discount per user is not attractive enough to go ahead and purchase."

"It costs about 300K AED for a year. Its pricing is a bit on the higher end, but in comparison to other products in the market, its price is still better. There are lots of other products that are very costly."

"The product is not expensive. It depends on the number of users."
